Program a Servopod-usb with JTAG

[fred37b]

Hi

I'm in a engineering school and I work on a project with a servopod. It's a project that have begin last year but the previous students don't let a manual so i don't know how I'm supposed to program the servopod with the JTAG cable 10P and a parallel port.

I build my project on Freescale's Codewarrior IDE.

Thanks.

Hi Fred37b, I saw your two posts which looked nearly identical, this one seemed best placed in Software Support, so I validated it, and am replying here.

The ServoPod works with Freescale (was Motorola) IDE. I am assuming your output from CodeWarrior is a S19 file. This can be loaded and tested through the JTAG.

Much better documentation is written for the IsoPod(TM) which is the predecessor to the ServoPod(TM). Almost all the documentation applies to both. They share very similar processors, the DSP56F805 and 807, the 807 having more memory and A/D lines.

So go to our downloads page, then our Pod's download page, and you will find a wealth of documentation. Quite a bit of the appnotes, etc., there are related to our IsoMax(TM) language, and they will not be helpful, other than general idea support perhaps. But at the very bottom of the page are links about Flashing over JTAG. You should find what you need there.

Welcome to our forum. Ask questions often if you like. We can't support Freescales development system. But we can certainly try to answer questions about our products and boards. Good luck with your project.
